This isn't the first song honoring Joe Paterno, but it's totally the best. Coming to us from Joey Welz, "The Boogie Woogie King of Rock 'n' Roll" and his Casio synthesizer, I so very proudly give you his latest single, "Tribute To Joe Paterno."

Lyrics are below, and lyrics are amazing.

The evil that was told to him he hardly understood He reported it to his superiors like he knew he should What happened after that he really never knew You don't tell your superiors what to do


Years later it all came back that he was given the blame for not doing something more, and he was put to shame Instead of going out with honor that his good name had earned For years of service and giving, his image they tried to burn

How could he be wrong, when he tried to do what was right? God judged him with mercy. Now he lives in God's delight (All right!) The records may state that cancer tore his body apart But through it all he remained stalwart, and he died of a broken heart

[Breakdown]

No trustees can destroy all that for years he created Not just winning teams, but young men who graduatedd Yeah, he was the people's coach, and the people will not stand for the slandering of one of the best coaches in the land.

Rest in peace, Joe Paterno. Your good name is still intact Nothing can destroy your image. We won't let it, that's a fact He was the people's coach, and the people will not stand for the slandering of one of the best coaches in the land
